Chapter 244: Chinese and Western Swords
Offet was in the field, obviously oppressed by the sword qi of Aotianxing, his face became solemn for the first time, and the long sword in his hand danced several sword flowers in the air, and the sound of swishing suddenly sounded like a bead, which could withstand the sword intent urged by Aotianxing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The long sword in his hand is the kind of handguard sword commonly used by Western nobles, in addition to the curved handle fingerguard, there is also a ring-shaped handguard, the blade is thin and long, extremely sharp, and full of toughness, when stabbed out, it can also be bent to hurt the enemy, which can be said to be unpredictable.
Offet didn't want to confront Aotianxing like this, because he felt that the sword intent that Aotianxing was prompting was getting stronger and stronger, and if he didn't take any action, he might not be able to withstand the powerful killing intent emanating from the whole body of this Eastern swordsman.
The Oriental people are really strange, and they can use such strange tricks to confuse people's minds in addition to using their long swords against the enemy.
With a light snort, Offet launched first, his body leaped up, and a sword stabbed at Aotianxing's chest.
This sword was not very fast, as soon as Ao Tianxing raised his hand, the Han sword in his hand was raised, and it was on top of his long sword at once, and it was easy to block this sword.
With a sound of "dang", there was a crisp sound of blade clashing, and Offet stepped forward to attack, and instantly stabbed three swords at Aotianxing again.
Aotianxing was not in a hurry, and the Han sword in his hand blocked the left and right, and resolved the next three swords.
The two separated again and stood in the hall to confront each other.
Everyone who was fighting outside the arena couldn't help but exclaim, they couldn't imagine that the two of them would be able to draw after a few rounds, and no one could hurt anyone.
Offet shook his head and sighed: "Mr. Ao, your swordsmanship is too slow, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch my sword moves below." "The few swords just now are just his tentative moves, just to master the depth of Aotianxing. Now that he had discovered Aotianxing's swordsmanship, he was confident that he would be able to defeat him in the next few rounds of onslaught.
Ao Tianxing took a long time, and said lightly: "Yes, you can attack it and try it!" He was called "a sword that shocked the sky" by his colleagues in the Ming Dynasty, and his swordsmanship naturally has a unique place, coupled with the unique heart of Aotianmen, "Deep Sea Nothing Hidden", he is confident that he can bring the power of this Han sword in his hand to the extreme.
His personality is completely different from that of his brother Ao Canghai, otherwise he may be able to practice the highest level of "deep sea without hiding", so that the sharp weapon in his hand will be even more irresistible. Ao Canghai's personality is relatively peaceful, but he is the complete opposite, he is more aggressive and arrogant than Ao Canghai.
If it weren't for the pain of losing his wife in the past few years, Xu Xinsuyan would have been able to control the affairs of the entire Aotianmen with one hand.
But in the past few years, his meditation and penance have made him much more resolute and steady, and he is no longer as wanton as he used to fly in the rivers and lakes.
Facing the sword moves of Ofit's attack like a storm, he smiled coldly, his body unfolded, and instead of retreating, he advanced towards Ofit.
"Jingle bell", the sound of the two swords clashing is endless, deafening, and reverberates back and forth in this spacious hall.
In an instant, the two of them had already gone through dozens of moves, and in the face of Offet's swift sword moves, Ao Tianxing had to take a defensive position to deal with this incomparably fast Western swordsmanship.
Sun Yueling saw everything in the field, and was terrified in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the swordsmanship of this Western swordsman Offitt could be so fast, it was simply something he had never seen in his life.
In fact, there is nothing peculiar about this Ofit's moves, and it seems very ordinary compared to the complex and treacherous swordsmanship of China. However, his speed was too fast, incredibly fast, to make these simple and practical moves to the extreme, producing another kind of amazing power.
The so-called martial arts in the world are unbreakable, only fast and unbreakable. Offitt's swordsmanship is like this, incredibly fast, too fast to parry, and when you react and want to block with a move, the tip of his sword is often less than three inches away from your skin, leaving you with no time to change your move to block, only to dodge.
Such a fast sword, it lives up to the name of five swords in one second. Sun Yueling secretly thought that if he was killed, in front of such a lightning-fast sword move, he might not be able to hold up thirty swords. However, after this appearance battle, he understood a lot, and understood the many changes and connections of this Ofit's sword moves, and he thought that if he faced this Ofit in the future, he would not be easily defeated.
The Ofitt in the field used thirty or forty swords one after another, but he still failed to defeat Ao Tianxing, and he couldn't help but be angry and anxious. Ao Tianxing's Oriental man's moves are really a little weird, under his fast sword, the other party is obviously difficult to resist, but whenever the tip of his sword or the blade is about to cut the opponent's body, it will always be inexplicably shaken a little away, and the difference is not enough to hurt the other party. The body of this oriental swordsman seemed to be filled with elusive magical energy, which always made it difficult for his sword moves to exert their full power.
Offet was in a hurry, and stabbed out more than a dozen swords in a row, forcing Ao Tianxing to be clumsy, but the long sword just couldn't stab his body, and it was always a little bit away at the last moment.
Seeing this, Sun Yueling couldn't help laughing, as the so-called you have a fast sword, I have Xuangong, Aotianxing's unique method of ascetic cultivation since childhood has played a huge role in this critical moment, under the shock of his body's real strength, even though Ofit's sword moves are fast and ruthless, but he can't help but go to Aotianxing's cold hair.
However, Aotianxing did this, and at any time he changed his strength to shake away the long sword that Offit was about to stab himself, it would inevitably consume a lot of real energy, and if it continued for a long time, if it was consumed after the drama, it might not be able to bargain in the hands of Offitt.
Now the two are just the one whose physical strength is longer, whose endurance is deeper, and the one who can't hold on will become the loser of this battle.
Sun Yueling, an insider, can certainly see the doorway of the two in the competition, but Song Ke and Planck can't see it, in their eyes, Offite has forced Aotianxing to retreat, and it may be defeated at any time. Planck's face was full of joy, and he cried out loudly, "Come on, Offit, defeat this self-defeating Oriental." ”
His blatant clamor aroused the dissatisfaction of the officials of the diplomatic corps, and many officials were angry, and they also shouted loudly to cheer for Ao Tianxing.
The shouts of the two sides suddenly rang out one after another, and they did not show weakness to each other, and they blushed and had thick noses.
Seeing this, Song Ke did not stop his subordinates from shouting, but turned to Sun Yueling and said with a proud smile: "Ambassador Sun, it seems that your Eastern swordsmanship is still not as good as our Western swordsmanship, I'm afraid I will have to wronged you to live in Relansha City for a while." ”
After listening to Zheng Yiguan's explanation, Sun Yueling laughed and said lightly: "Really? The show is still to come, and Chief Song Ke seems to be a little happy too soon......"
Just after his words fell, the situation in the field seemed to have been reversed, Ao Tianxing turned from defense to offense, the Han sword in his hand was raised, slashing left and right, stabbing up and down, like an ancient artifact, slashing towards the foreign Hongyi of Ofit.
And Orfitt had become vain, panting, and apparently exhausted by the exertion of a great deal of physical strength.
The reversal of the situation in the middle of the field stunned all the Dutchmen who were watching the game, and Planck's eyes widened in shock, forgetting to shout, and watching everything in disbelief.
Only Sun Yueling smiled, Aotianxing played up his strengths and avoided weaknesses, and endured for so long, and finally waited for the moment of a violent counterattack - even though Offet is physically strong, how can it be compared to Aotianxing, who is free and ascetic Xuangong, and wants to compete with us Orientals for a long time and fight for a long time, the Dutch are obviously insignificant.
"Jingle bell", the sound of the two swords clashing exploded, and Aotianxing had already spurred out a powerful true strength, completely enveloping Ofit, locking it tightly, sword after sword, bringing the majesty of this eight-sided sword to the extreme, forcing Ofit to keep retreating.
The powerful True Power was highly condensed, and it continued to attack towards the Ofit along the straight sword body. Offet only felt that the opponent's sword was getting stronger and stronger, as if he had been in a stormy wave, his hands and feet were becoming more and more disobedient, and even breathing became very difficult, let alone casting a sword move that was as fast as thunder.
Suddenly, Ao Tianxing suddenly jumped into the air, and the Han sword in his hand was raised high, slashing down like a thunderbolt.
Offet only felt that the wind was pressing on his body, and his face was full of energy, and his face seemed to be cut by a knife and an axe, and he was torn in pain.
In a hurry, he hurriedly raised his sword to the shelf, and with a "bang" sound, he only felt a shock all over his body, a shock in his chest, and he couldn't help squirting out a mouthful of blood.
When he came back to his senses, he saw that the long sword in his hand had disappeared for some time, and the arrogant Han sword had already pressed against his throat, and he could even feel the bone-chilling cold on the tip of the sword.
"This ...... I ......" Offitt's face was pale and weak, unable to speak.
With a "whoosh", Ao Tianxing withdrew his sword, clenched his fists again, and smiled at him: "Thanks to the gift, Ao won by luck!" ”
The people who were fighting outside the arena couldn't bear it anymore at this time, and couldn't help but let out bursts of exclamation.
Aotianxing's victory made the envoys extremely excited, and everyone cheered happily. On the contrary, the Dutch side was all disappointed and sad, especially the captain of the fleet, Song Ke, with a look of surprise and disappointment, and he could not imagine that the Offit, which had always had the upper hand, would suddenly be defeated.
Sun Yueling smiled and said to Song Ke: "Chief Song Ke, it seems that our Oriental swordsmanship skills are still superior!" However, your Western swordsmanship is really good, and you can force our swordsmen to use special moves to win! ”
Song Ke's disappointment was beyond words, he sighed, and said: "I can't imagine that there are such superb swordsmanship in your East, Offet is a legend in our West, and he has always been invincible, but he is still defeated in the hands of you Orientals......"
Sun Yueling waved his hand and said with a smile: "Where is it, swordsmanship is just something used to learn and discuss skills, and it doesn't mean anything if we win, there are still many places between our two countries that need to learn from each other and tolerate each other!" ”
Lu Wenheng said with a smile: "Since our Ming Dynasty won the sword competition, I also ask Chief Song Ke to keep his promise and fulfill his promise as soon as possible." ”
Before Song Ke could speak, Planck, the lieutenant next to him, was not convinced, and argued with a thick neck: "Winning or losing a sword is nothing, we have to compete with you in musket shooting, and the skills of fighting......"
Song Ke snorted at him to stop him from continuing, turned to Sun Yueling and said, "Don't worry, envoy, since we have lost, we will definitely give you an explanation." Come, let's eat first, but don't let down the table that God has given us. ”
Sun Yueling smiled and responded angrily. This Song Ke is still a character, if he loses, he loses, but he is willing to accept defeat and will not quibble, but that Planck seems to be a little unable to lose, with an indignant look on his face, eager to retry with them.
Since Song Ke said that he would give them an explanation, it was not easy to rush them too much at this time, so he could only wait for a response. Sun Yueling knew that this Song Ke was originally full of ambition and was confident that the Dutch side would not be defeated, but under the turn of events, Offet was no match for Ao Tianxing, which made him very unhappy, but there was no way, who told him that he was too full of words before, and now there is no room for maneuver.
So far, Sun Yueling is not afraid that Song Ke will not agree to their request, but even if the Dutch agree to Daming's request, they will definitely put forward some conditions, but these are not very important, as long as the other party can agree to the general principle of Zhu Qinxiang's maritime trade policy, other things can sit down and talk slowly, after all, it is almost impossible and unrealistic to let the Dutch completely passively operate in the way of Daming.
As an envoy of the Ming envoys, of course, he had some small rights to make temporary decisions, but if the Dutch made excessive demands, he would naturally have to wait until he returned to Zhu Qinxiang before making a decision.
Therefore, the two sides closed their mouths and stopped talking about trade, but talked about other things, and the guests and hosts of both sides enjoyed themselves and happily finished the banquet.
After returning to the guest room, Li Dan and Yan Ke came to ask Sun Yueling to say goodbye, Li Dan was going to Gelansha Town to inspect his trading house, and Yan Ke was going to set sail again to Beigang to meet his father Yan Siqi.
Sun Yueling readily agreed to their request and let them go. Li Dan's transit station for cross-border trade was located in the town of Gerancha, so he naturally had to go there to inspect it. And Yan Ke is not to mention, he has been separated from his father Yan Siqi for several months, and now there is no reason not to visit him after coming to Taiwan.
Thinking of Yan Siqi, Sun Yueling felt a burst of excitement, and he didn't know how he managed Beigang. Beigang was the first experimental field for them to implement the policy of opening up Taiwan across the sea, and 3,000 immigrants from Fujian had already arrived as the first batch of garrison troops, and now, after a few months, I wonder if these inland people have settled down in Beigang and built their own homes.
